HP has a villain system but has become a popular character
Chapter 222 Unfortunate Childhood
"Bourne? Didn't you go celebrate with your friends? Today is the last day of the school year at Hogwarts."
Sally Bourne did not answer his question, but asked in return, "What about you, Lord? Why didn't you stay in the auditorium?"
Wenxiu Lord didn't want to say what he really thought. After all, even he would think that his thoughts were pretentious.
"I'm just a little tired and want to go back and rest early." He chose to use the same excuse to get away with it.
The two men stood face to face, some distance apart, Vinciu Lord in the moonlight and Sally Bourne in the shadows.
Wenxiu Lord saw the young man with his hands behind his back in the dark. Perhaps the shadow was his protective color. Sally Bourne did not lower his head shyly. The two looked face to face. Wenxiu Lord saw him raise the corners of his lips.
"Lord, can I invite you to my house this holiday?"
The boy played with the potion with his hands behind his back, the dark liquid emitting tiny rays of light flowing in the shadows.
This invitation was somewhat abrupt. In Wenxiu Lord's opinion, the two of them did not have much in common. They were merely ordinary friends who could talk to each other for a few words. Their relationship might even be a little more distant than that of ordinary friends. He had never expected to receive an invitation from Sally Burne.
She wanted to reject Sally Bourne as tactfully as possible so as not to hurt the shy boy's feelings.
"I'm sorry, my housekeeper has already made travel arrangements for this holiday. Although I really want to, I may not have time to visit your home."
Wenxiu Lord said something else, but Sally Bourne could no longer hear it. The smile on his face gradually disappeared, and the movement of playing with the potion in his hand paused.
The silver-haired boy's voice stopped, but the boy in the shadows did not speak for a long time.
The corridor suddenly became eerily quiet. Only the person in the frame was silently gesturing to the four people.
After a while, the young man in the shadow took a few steps forward into the moonlight, lowered his head again, making it impossible to see his expression again, and his tone was filled with the loneliness of being rejected.
"Well, I should say sorry for inviting you so suddenly."
Feeling a little frightened by being stared at, Wenxiu Lord hid behind Severus and unconsciously clenched his wand in his hand.
After seeing Sally Burne's expression and hearing his tone, he relaxed a little, and comforted himself that maybe it was just an illusion.
"It doesn't matter." Regardless of whether it was an illusion or not, Wenxiu Lord did not intend to stay here and chat with Sally Bourne.
Holding Severus' wrist, the silver-haired boy said a few simple words to Sally Bourne, asking him not to worry about it, and then left with Regulus and Severus.
"Lord."
Wenxiu Lord stopped his eager steps and turned around.
"Can I call you Wen Xiu?"
Sally Bourne stood back in the shadows, in the same posture, with the same expression, smiling at him.
"can."
With a sticky feeling of being watched all over his body, Wenxiu Lord agreed to Sally Bourne's request without thinking.
Let him call me whatever he wants, Wenxiu Lord doesn't want to stay with him for even a second.
'This is really weird. Could it be that Sally Bourne is possessed by Riddle's Horcrux? No, I have to let Sebastian investigate.'
Thinking of this, Wenxiu Lord quickened his pace to leave.
The figures of the three people completely disappeared at the end of the corridor. Sally Bourne withdrew his gaze, and the dark potion was completely wrapped in his palm. The boy retreated and merged with the darkness...
Back in the dormitory, Severus and Regulus, who had already sensed something was wrong, trapped Wenxiu Lord between them and questioned him.
Wenxiu Lord did not express his guess. If it was really related to Riddle, then it would be safest for the two of them not to know.
His comfort could not dispel the worries and doubts in the hearts of the two people, but he was unwilling to say more, so the two could only investigate on their own and put Sally Bourne on the danger list.
In this situation, Wenxiu Lord no longer had the leisure to chat and drink tea. Regulus saw that he was not in a good mood and did not stay for long. He said goodbye and left after a while.
In the hall, Sirius, Remus and James Potter were besieged by the entire Gryffindor grade because they made great contributions to Gryffindor's last place.
After finally escaping from the siege of their classmates, Sirius and Remus, with their faces stained and bodies covered in dirt, squeezed out of the crowd. They searched the entire hall, but couldn't find Vinciu Lord who had left long ago.
The two looked at each other. They wanted to laugh at each other's miserable condition, but when they thought about their own miserable condition, they couldn't laugh anymore.
A few seniors with bad intentions chased after them. The two men were depressed because they didn't find Wenxiu Lord. The miserable state of their bodies was not as bad as their mood at the moment.
The two men, feeling uncomfortable both physically and mentally, looked at each other, drew their wands from their sleeves, and decided to fight back and fight this group of people!
Gryffindor was the craziest person in the entire hall, running all over the place in red and gold.
The Slytherins gathered in groups of three or five, looking at the Gryffindor crowd casting spells, feeling disgusted yet unable to look away.
Professor McGonagall, who was sitting in the teaching chair, was looking at the Gryffindor student who was making the most noise. The serious and elegant lady blushed for the first time.
Just as he was about to stand up and open his mouth to stop him, Dumbledore held down his wrist holding the wand.
"Minerva, this is a rare carnival. I have never seen such a bustle in previous years."
Professor McGonagall frowned, "But this is a bit too much."
"It's okay Minerva, nothing will happen as long as we are here, just let them have fun and enjoy their youth."
——?°3°?——
After saying goodbye to their friends, the little wizards carried their luggage and set off on their journey home.
After returning to the manor, the first thing Wenxiu Lord did was to ask Sebastian to investigate Sally Bourne.
The butler acted quickly, and all the information that could be found about Sally Bourne was presented to Wenxiu Lord on the third day.
The storage and registration model of population files in the wizarding world is not perfect, and the current system in Muggle society also has many loopholes.
A few thin pages of paper summarized the boy's life over the past decade.
Wenxiu Lord flipped through the parchment in his hand with a frown on his face.
Sally Bourne lived a happy life in his childhood. There was no other child in the family, and his parents gave all their love to him.
Happiness is short-lived.
When Sally Bourne was 4 years old, her Muggle father was caught cheating on her and divorced her wizard mother.
Later, because Sally Bourne's mother was busy with work, she sent him to boarding school. Then, there was a simple summary of Sally Bourne being bullied by the children around him because of his wizarding talent.
An unhappy childhood, but nothing unusual.
'No wonder Bourne is so timid. Was the strange feeling that night really an illusion?'
After burning the parchment in his hand, Wenxiu Lord looked out the window. The flames went out until only ashes were left on the ground.
Another week has passed.
This holiday seemed to be a lot more relaxing than last year. Wenxiu Lord put down the feather pen in his hand and looked out the window. The curtains were blown by the wind and flew towards the balcony and rolled up the fence.
It was a sun-filled day.
Sirius opened his eyes with a sense of something and saw the breeze blowing across the face of the silver-haired boy.
This time he didn't even go home, but followed Wenxiu Lord directly back to Lord Manor, leaving Regulus, who looked unhappy, alone to face Walburga Black's questioning.
Sirius sat up, he felt a little thirsty.
Remus, who was sitting on the single sofa opposite and studying, paid a little attention and raised his eyelids. He saw Sirius walking towards Wenxiu Lord and putting down the quill in his hand.
Severus, who was sitting on a single chair on the balcony reading a book in the sun, didn't even take his eyes off the pages of the book. He turned his wrist and a piece of sugar cube hit Sirius right between the eyebrows.
Although sugar cubes are a failure as food for Severus, they seem to be particularly talented as weapons.
The sound of the sugar cube hitting the skin, along with Severus's scoff, ignited Sirius's anger.
"Snape, let's duel."
He changed direction, drew his wand and walked towards the balcony.
Severus gave him a mocking look and put on a layer of super armor to protect himself.
